Tang Shiping Unveils the “K Plan”: Empowering Kinghelm & Slkor Through Knowledge-Driven Innovation and Competitive Edge

 

Mr. Tang Shiping

 

On July 5th, Tang Shiping—architect of the groundbreaking “K Plan”—alongside electronics industry expert He Hongxing, visited the headquarters of Kinghelm (www.kinghelm.net) and Slkor (www.slkoric.com). Tang delivered an exclusive in-house training session titled “Decrypting the ‘K Plan’,” drawing keen participation from senior executives, including General Manager Mr. Song Shiqiang and Deputy General Managers Cheng Yujie and He Junju, as well as mid-level managers, sales teams, and cross-functional representatives.

The session sparked high engagement and a dynamic learning environment.

A Tsinghua University graduate with both Bachelor's and Master's degrees, Tang Shiping brings 13 years of experience from Huawei in integrated circuit and hardware R&D. His "K Plan" is a multi-tiered strategy centered around:

• Knowledge Architecture

• Key Points Mastery

• Know-How Transmission

• Skill-Based Training

Joining him was He Hongxing, a veteran with 18 years in the electronics industry and co-creator of the K Plan, known for his “Six-Pulse Divine Sword” sales methodology—a unique and powerful framework for boosting front-line performance.

Together, their visit marks a major step forward in fostering knowledge-sharing and building long-term competitive advantage for both Kinghelm and Slkor.

General Manager Song Shiqiang

 

Mr. Tang Shiping brings over two decades of senior expertise in the hardware industry. As the visionary behind the "K Plan" and Co-Founder (Product Director) of Zhongmin Semiconductor, he is pioneering a transformative approach to industry knowledge and opportunity sharing.

At the heart of the K Plan lies a powerful philosophy:
"Knowledge: Co-create and Share. Business Opportunities: Co-create and Win-Win."

Inspired by the structured knowledge-sharing and case-based learning models used in leading communications enterprises, Tang is building a collaborative platform designed to spark innovation across the sector—particularly in support of the fast-growing new energy industry.

The K Plan implements a clear framework for impact:

• Participants are organized through a system of stratification, grading, and categorization—whether as contributors or recipients of knowledge.

• It enables a dynamic ecosystem for co-creating business opportunities, encouraging shared growth.

• The ultimate goal: a win-win environment where innovation, experience, and value flow across teams and organizations.

This initiative is more than a methodology—it’s a movement to elevate collective capability and drive the next wave of technological advancement.

 

 

What Is the "K Plan"?
The K Plan is a strategic methodology designed to accelerate innovation and competitiveness across the new energy sector—especially within the battery industry's entire upstream and downstream value chain.

Developed by industry expert Tang Shiping, the K Plan provides a structured approach to building comprehensive knowledge systems, with a strong focus on real-world application and cross-functional integration. It operates across five critical dimensions, known as ABC+E, which encompass:

• Raw materials

• Core technology modules

• PACK and end-use applications

• System integrators

• The IPD (Integrated Product Development) process

To support this, the K Plan defines four progressive knowledge levels—each enhancing the way individuals and teams think, learn, and apply critical concepts:

1. Level 1 – Knowledge Architecture
   Build a structured framework of knowledge rooted in practical experience. Develop big-picture thinking and a systems mindset.

2. Level 2 – Key Point
   Identify core issues and their driving factors. Focus on what truly matters—because key knowledge unlocks real results.

3. Level 3 – Know How
   Go beyond knowing how—understand why. Avoid common mistakes by learning from proven case studies and expert insights.

4. Level 4 – Skill Training
   Translate knowledge into action through hands-on training. Strengthen problem-solving and operational execution.

By adopting the K Plan, professionals can master systematic thinking, foster cross-industry learning, and create a competitive edge in fast-moving markets like new energy, semiconductors, and industrial applications.

The true value of the K Plan lies in its real-world application—leveraging knowledge and skills not just to solve challenges, but to elevate thinking. By combining structured learning with hands-on execution, it empowers individuals and teams to transcend traditional boundaries and achieve breakthrough performance through high-level, systems-based thinking.

 

“This Is Part of the Plan.”
During his training session, Mr. Tang Shiping, founder of the K Plan, referenced the iconic line from The Three-Body Problem—“This is part of the plan”—and offered his own thought-provoking interpretation through the lens of strategic knowledge building:

1. Knowledge co-creation and sharing is just one piece of the K Plan.

2. The 10 core knowledge systems are only one dimension of the K Plan.

3. The K Plan itself is part of a broader, long-term strategy.

4. Each of the 10 knowledge systems is interconnected and interdependent.

5. Everyone should design their own K Plan—a personal roadmap for growth.

6. Human collaboration and learning are universally connected—success is a shared endeavor.

The message? Behind every skill, every idea, and every improvement lies a greater system at work. In a world of increasing complexity, the K Plan empowers individuals and organizations to align knowledge, purpose, and strategy—all as part of a bigger plan.

 

“Everyone Should Have Their Own K Plan!”
This inspiring call-to-action encourages professionals to harness the power of open-source knowledge sharing—learning from real-world experience, applying insights to practice, and elevating their thinking to build high-level cognitive frameworks that sharpen competitive edge.

He Hongxing, co-creator of the K Plan and a seasoned expert with 18 years in the electronics industry, introduced his philosophy for sales excellence through the concept of the “Six-Pulse Divine Sword of Sales”:

1. Be a versatile generalist – Master multiple domains.

2. Read between the lines – Understand what others mean beyond what they say.

3. Stay relentlessly persistent – Never give up.

4. Thrive under pressure – Remain calm even when the sky is falling.

5. Prioritize service – True service means exceeding customer expectations.

6. Commit to lifelong learning – Keep growing, always.

The message is clear: Success comes from building your own knowledge strategy, mastering soft and hard skills, and constantly evolving.

 

At the close of the training, Mr. Tang Shiping led an interactive session featuring live Q&A, open discussion, and personalized one-on-one guidance—bringing strong real-world applicability to the training experience.

Mr. Song Shiqiang emphasized the importance of forward-thinking in corporate strategy, noting that effective business planning must anticipate developments at least 3 to 5 years ahead—especially critical in fast-moving industries like semiconductors.

This hands-on, knowledge-driven training serves as a cornerstone in building a robust knowledge infrastructure. It not only enhances participants’ technical capabilities, critical thinking, and practical skills, but also empowers Kinghelm and Slkor to evolve into knowledge-centric, innovation-led organizations with the resilience to tackle large-scale, long-term goals.

Looking ahead, Kinghelm and Slkor aim to deepen collaboration with Zhongmin Semiconductor, led by Mr. Tang, in areas such as resource sharing, co-marketing initiatives, and knowledge monetization. This strategic alliance will better serve global customer needs while jointly fostering a sustainable and high-impact innovation ecosystem.
